Noah got a special package from his Aunt Connie with a very fun Gymboree bubble maker. He LOVES this thing! It’s actually a little curious what the bubbles are made of to make them hang around so long (we found bubbles the next day!)

I don’t think Mother’s Day could get any better! I really feel so blessed! I woke up this morning to the smell of beautiful lilies, and Noah and Greg took me to breakfast at one of our favorite places – Chateau Elan. My favorite part – the cheese blintzes with raspberry sauce :)

Did you know it's Mommy's Day???

Ready for the buffet!

(Noah ate a lot of fruit, and loved the belgian waffles!)

After breakfast, we went for a walk through the gardens behind the hotel. It was such a beautiful spring day!

After breakfast - out in the gardens

Noah just wants to run...

Mr. Independent (he refused to let me hold his hand!)

Here I go!

And back indoors…

Running through the hotel

These stairs are much bigger than the ones at home!

Later we went to a park/playground to burn off some of that energy. Noah loves the swings here…

Digging in the sand with Daddy

And back home, I got to see my big surprise that Noah and Daddy had been working on. Noah decorated a canvas bag (obviously with the help of Daddy), complete with handprints. I got a big bag of M&Ms (who knows me well??), a McDonald’s gift certificate for the McGriddles I’ve been craving and a beautiful potted Dahlia plant. Who’s a lucky mommy?

Mommy’s present from Noah (he’s just trying to play with the dirt!)

I hope every other Mother was able to feel as special as I did today. Thank you!
